    After my shave today my wife told me I smelled like an old barber. :rofl: One thing I'll say is that this Hamol cream is a treasure. Does it ever smell nice, its lather is among the best I've ever seen from a cream, and it's fairly cooling with a good post-shave feeling. The Lemon Chill witch hazel gave me a ton and a half of extra freeze, and then I helped myself to a couple of sprays of the Pe Re Ja Lemon cologne from Turkey. Despite the Derby blade being pretty well kaputt, I still managed to get a damned good BBS shave. For this week I'll be using a different brand of blade in my Super Speed. :happy088: :happy088:

    Silvertip Sunday with new hardware.........

    TOBS Avocado & County Uncle Silvertip (my 1st brush)
    Gillette New LC paired w/a fresh Derby blade (I find this razor aggressive so I pair it w/a mild blade. Great combo for me)
    Witch hazel rinse, followed by British Sterling ASB & finishing w/a dab of British Sterling EDC

    2-passes over 2-day stubble for an outstanding near BBS shave

    This is the razor that sent me down the wet shaving rabbit hole in the first place. My grandpa's Nielsen's Never Fail. I hadn't used it since my fourth shave with a straight. Coming back to it 50 shaves later was really gratifying. It gave me a fantastic shave and the difference since last using it was very noticeable. :happy036:

    SOTD: 12/4/2016 - "Thoroughly Shaved"

    Soap: Phoenix Shaving "To Be Franke"
    Brush: Scott Pavkovich Brushworks 3-band "Ghost Trails" Badger
    Razor: Phoenix Shaving Stainless DOC Evolution w/ Personnna Lab Blue (1)
    Post: Soap Commander "Integrity" aftershave balm & HTGAM Bay Rum splash

    THIS is what was in the box. This is a shave Effin would be proud of. The razor is NOT the original DOC. Very different experience. More on that later.

    Be Smooth and shave it up, everyone!

    Thanks - me too ;) It's not the cheapest brush (that's why I hesitated for quite a while), but now I'm glad I finally bought it.

    excellent photo filter today Robert! I had a chance to pickup an PAL Injecto-Matic little over a month ago at local antique store but when I asked about the price they wanted more than I had paid for my repeater so I passed. Now I cant find my repeater so injector week has been put off for at least another week as I continue the search. Sucks getting old!

    Thank you Guy! They come up on the Bay frequently that might be worth a shot. It's my favorite razor hands down. :)
